Step # 1 : Create fresh Laravel project or use an existing Laravel project.
Two commands to create fresh Laravel project.
Global Command : laravel new barcode
Or use
Non Global Command : composer create-project laravel/laravel --prefer-dist barcode
Step # 2 : Access the project.
Open a terminal (e.g., Git Bash) and navigate to your Laravel project's root folder.
Git Bash : cd c:xampp/htdocs/barcode
Run the Laravel Vite development server. Install the required dependencies and start the Vite server for front-end assets.
Command : npm install && npm run dev
Open a new Git Bash window or tab, and navigate to the same project directory to run further Laravel commands.
Step # 3 : Install barcode package.
Command : composer require milon/barcode
Step # 4 : Publish the configuration file (Optional).
Command : php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Milon\Barcode\BarcodeServiceProvider"
Step # 5 : Create a controller.
Command : php artisan make:controller ProductController
Make a method named index to return a view.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class ProductController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
return view('barcode');
}
}
Step # 6 : Create a view.
In order to display the Codes create a view named barcode.blade.php.
(resources/views/barcode.blade.php)

<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Laravel Generate Barcode Examples - Code Shotcut</title>
<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">

<div class="mb-3">{!! DNS1D::getBarcodeHTML('4445645656', 'UPCA') !!}</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Step # 7 : Create a route.
Import ProductController class
use App\Http\Controllers\ProductController;
Create a route
Route::get('/barcode', [ProductController::class, 'index']);
Step # 8 : It's time to test.
Run the Laravel server.
Command : php artisan serve
Access url 127.0.0.0:8000/barcode
